- This event has passed.
After two solid years of touring behind them, the members of Parachute recorded The Way It Was, the follow-up to their 2009 Top 40 debut, Losing Sleep.
The band’s patented lush melodies are now accompanied by a production that is intricate yet sparing, with plenty of aural space for the band to explore the soaring gospel harmonies of the first single, “Something to Believe In (Jeremiah),” the Afropop Peter Gabriel/Sting world beat of “What I Know,” the wide-screen Springsteen-like cinematic epics “American Secrets” and “Philadelphia,” along with the country-flavored twang of “Kiss Me Slowly.”
Parachute has once again proven they are one of America’s most promising young bands, and they are just getting started.
